Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area= length x width

area=6/7, length=3/5, width=?

6/7=3/5 x width

6/7 divided by 3/5= 6/7 x 5/3 (you have to multiply by the recipricol, or flip the fraction.)

6/7 x 5/3=30/21= 1 3/7=width

The side lengths of a right triangle are 18 cm, 24 cm, and 30 cm. You are asked to find the area of the triangle by using A = 1/

vekshin1

Answer:

1. Use the Adjacent and opposite side (Ignore the Hypotenuse)

Or use HERO'S FORMULA based on the information given

2. Area = 216cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three to four ways we can go about finding the area of a triangle. And a these would be dependent on the information given about the triangle.

From the question, you said the three side lengths are given. In such case, we employ the HERO FORMULA.

HERO FORMULA:

Area = √ s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

where s = 1/2(a + b + c)

a, b, c are the three sides

But since the question insisted that we use 1/2* base * height. Let's use our know of right angle to dissolve that.

A right angle triangle has three sides. The longest is always the Hypotenuse.

Let's take it this way.

Hypotenuse = 30cm

Opposite= 18cm

Adjacent = 24cm

Area = 1/2 * base * height

Area = 1/2 * 18 * 24

Area = 1/2 * 432

Area = 216cm^2

We ignored the longest side, (the Hypotenuse)

You have one type of nut that sells for $2.80/lb and another type of nut that sells for $9.60/lb. You would like to have 20.4 lb

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:11.396Ibs of nuts that cost $9.60/Ib and 9.014Ibs that cost $2.80/Ib

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the cost of the supposed mixture we are to get by selling it $6.60/Ib which weighs 20.41Ibs

Which is 6.6 x 20.41 = $134.64

Now we label the amount of mixture we want to get with x and y

x = amount of nuts that cost $2.8/Ib

y = amount of nuts that cost $9.6/Ib

Now we know the amount of mixture needed is 20.41Ibs

So x + y = 20.41Ibs

And then since the price of the mixture to be gotten overall is $134.64

We develop an equation with x and y for that same amount

We know the first type of nut is $2.8/Ib

So for x amount we have 2.8x

For the second type of nut that is $9.6/Ib

For y amount we have 9.6y

So adding these to equate to $134.64

2.8x + 9.6y = 134.64

So we have two simultaneous equations

x + y = 20.41 (1)

2.8x + 9.6y = 57.148 (2)

We can solve either using elimination or factorization method

I'm using elimination method

Multiplying the first equation by 2.8 so that the coefficient of x for both equations will be the same

2.8x + 2.8y = 57.148

2.8x + 9.6y = 134.64

Subtracting both equations

-6.8y = -77.492

Dividing both sides by -6.8

y = -77.492/-6.8 =11.396

y = 11.396Ibs which is the amount of nuts that cost $9.6/Ib

Putting y = 11.396 in (1)

x + y = 20.41 (1)

x +11.396 = 20.41

Subtract 11.396 from both sides

x +11.396-11.396 = 20.41-11.396

x = 9.014Ibs which is the amount of nuts that cost $2.8/Ibs
